tug of war

the film module class recently discussed a few movies like 'all about my mother' and 'bleu' which explores the idea of freedom and how much one can realli go to obtain that. in the films, the characters are desperately looking for a way to free themselves, from their past or their sexuality, or social norms. but they are constantly held back by the reality. as much as they want to try to escape.

how much is liberty really worth? is it really imposed on u by other pple? or is it just something that pple bring upon themselves? is liberty some all too pompus idea that pple chase after blindly? is there ever true liberation?

i tink it's a tug of war where reality always wins.
